Hi Stunnel users,

if I use xinetd to start a service I got the possibility to start the
service with a dedicated user. For example:

service fex
{
    socket_type = stream
    wait = no
    type = unlisted
    protocol = tcp
    bind = 123.12.1.12
    port = 80
    cps = 10 2
 * user = fex
    groups = yes
    server = /home/fex/bin/fexsrv
    nice = 0
    disable = no
}


I got some kind of webserver (not apache, nginx etc) that needs to be
started with xinetd (the example above).
This server should get a SSL tunnel.

If I use Stunnel in daemon mode (without jails/chroot) and define a
service like this:


 [https]
 accept  = 123.12.1.12:443
 exec = /home/fex/bin/fexsrv
 execargs = fexsrv stunnel
 TIMEOUTclose = 2

Everything works fine, except that the server now runs as root.
Is there a possibility to set a user for a service?



Best regards
Florian Götz
